The Tribune, Chandigarh, India - JALANDHAR PLUS It may be a mirage of a better future or a distant dream, but the youth of Doaba are not hesitating to follow it despite the uncertainty that comes attached with it. The trend to go and settle abroad is catching the fancy of youngsters here to such an extent that nearly 40 per cent of the total population of the youngsters have either already left for foreign countries—legally or illegally— or a large number of them waiting for the next available opportunity. The driving force behind their fast flight from the Doaba region is unemployment and the dream of a “golden” future in foreign land, which hardly gets fulfilled. www.tribuneindia.com /2006/20060106/jplus.htm   (891 words)

Doaba Guerfel - SWG Wiki The village, which took on the name Doaba Guerfel, was populated for only about half of each standard year with a variety of resort staff, ranging from cooks and cleaning crew to hunting guides and airspeeder pilots.

Journeys into terrorism He had no previous record of terrorist sympathies; indeed, many Doaba youth distanced themselves from the Khalistan movement to avoid police records that could jeopardise their prospects of emigrating legally, through marriage or through the sponsorship of relatives. Perhaps as significant as the recruitment of Doaba immigrant youths is the direct involvement of British Sikh immigrants in terrorist activity in India. The arrest of British citizen Gurnam Singh early in August 1997 in Ludhiana, and the recovery of 15 kg of RDX and high-technology 'A,B,C,D' electronic detonators from the car he was travelling in, illustrates the influence of revanchist groups abroad. www.hindu.com /thehindu/fline/fl1418/14180250.htm   (2134 words)

The fatal lure of the West As many as 166 of those who died were from Punjab, overwhelmingly from the affluent Doaba region between the Ravi and the Beas rivers.
